Abstract
okay so this doc is about testing a network that uses a Mapping of Address and Port using Translation (MAP-T) double translation setup ๐ It also looks at how user apps behave when they're sharing one IPv4 address, which is giving main character energy ๐
The MAP-T software came from the CERNET Center, and the testing happened on the NIC.br network using a mix of real and virtualized machines ๐ฅ๏ธโจ

1. Introduction ๐
okay so this testing is based on the most common apps home users actually use ๐ฑ The main goal was to check if those apps work properly on a network using MAP-T [RFC7599]. MAP-T is based on [RFC6791] ๐
From the testing, we figured out which apps can work on a MAP-T network and what the impact looks like for a typical Internet user in Brazil ๐ง๐ทโจ The classification of a "working" app is based on user experience, not on network measurements, so it's all about vibes and how it actually feels ๐ซถ

Figure 1: Network Topology Used in the Tests ๐ธ
The MAP-T Core and the MAP-T Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) are virtualized Linux machines running Fedora 11 and MAP-T 1.1 software developed by CERNET (https://github.com/cernet/MAP) ๐ง๐
The host machine is actually three virtualized machines: one running Linux Kubuntu 12.04, one running Windows 7, and one running Windows XP ๐ฅ๏ธ๐ฅ๏ธ๐ฅ๏ธ The host is swapped out in the topology so each operating system (OS) gets its own turn ๐
The IPv6 router is a Linux machine with static routes that match the MAP-T network topology routes ๐ฃ๏ธ
The NIC.br IPv4 Network is an IPv4 network with public IPv4 addresses, and it's connected to the global IPv4 Internet ๐
The NIC.br IPv6 Network is an IPv6 network with global unicast IPv6 addresses, and it's connected to the global IPv6 Internet ๐โจ
Here's the tea ๐ต The host may have both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, but to make sure the translation was actually being tested, the host only got an IPv4 address. The IPv4 packet must be translated so it can get across the IPv6-only network ๐ฆ If the host does get an IPv6 address, that address should have a preference as specified in [RFC6555], and in some cases the translation might not get tested at all if the app or content provider is reachable over IPv6 ๐
2.2. Configuration Files โ๏ธ
2.2.1. MAP-T Core ๐ง

2.2.2. IPv6-Only Router โจ
okay so this box is the IPv6-only router, and it's giving main character energy ๐ It has three interfaces, one facing the core, one facing the CPE, and one facing the gateway. Here's the config summary, bestie ๐ซถ
interface-ipv6-to-mapt-core=2001:db8:6:e000::1/64interface-ipv6-to-mapt-cpe1=2001:db8:6:e001::1/64interface-ipv6-to-gateway=2001:db8:0:6160::ed19/64
And here's the config file, which is the script that sets everything up ๐
#!/bin/sh
# configure system profile
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/forwarding

2.2.3. MAP-T CPE 1 ๐ฆ
this one is the MAP-T CPE, the little translator that makes the magic happen โจ Here's the config summary, slay ๐
ipv6-prefix=2001:db8:6:d600::/56ipv4-prefix=198.51.100.248/29interface-ipv6-only=2001:db8:6:e001::2/64interface-ipv4-lan=198.51.100.249/29
And the config file, obsessed with how clean this is ๐ธ
#!/bin/sh
./control stop
# configure system profile
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/forwarding
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth0/autoconf
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth1/autoconf

service iptables stop
service ip6tables stop
2.2.4. Host 1 ๐
okay so the host could be Linux, Windows 7, or Windows XP, so there isn't a script for each of them ๐ Instead, these things MUST be set up by hand:
ipv4-address=198.51.100.250/29ipv4-gateway=198.51.100.249ipv4-DNS=8.8.8.8IPv6 is disabled
The communication using IPv6 from and to the host to and from the Internet has no limitation and is not impacted by the translation mechanism, ngl that's so cool ๐ IPv6 is disabled to guarantee that the translation is being used, so the host can't sneak off the IPv6 path ๐ซฃ

5. Effect Analysis ๐ฆ
5.1. User Experience ๐
user experience can only be judged subjectively, bestie, there's no quantitative rule for whether it's acceptable ๐คทโโ๏ธ Network delay, streaming experience, and download time are similar to a network without MAP-T that uses IPv4 addresses and a NAT44 on the CPE.
The user experience was reported to be very good โจ Almost all the software and websites worked correctly. The exceptions were the network traceroute and command-line FTP ๐ญ
The traceroute is only capable of reaching the MAP-T CPE and receiving a return message that the destination net is unreachable ๐
The command-line FTP, using active mode, is capable of connecting to the host with or without authentication, and of creating, deleting, and navigating folders ๐ But it is not capable of listing folder contents or sending and receiving files. The differences between active and passive mode are explained in [RFC959].
The BitTorrent applications can't seed or share files, since there aren't incoming connections to the host. This may cause some difficulties and low downloading speeds ๐ฅฒ
5.2. Testing Summary ๐ธ
The working applications had no need of a special configuration to function, iconic ๐ The user experience was reported to be very good. Almost all the software and websites worked correctly, and the exceptions were the network traceroute and command-line FTP.
The command-line FTP doesn't work correctly because active mode requires incoming connections to specific ports without having an outbound connection on those ports. When the test was run on FTP passive mode on Linux, the FTP worked correctly. When the test was run on FTP passive mode on Windows 7 and Windows XP, the FTP didn't work correctly. When using FileZilla FTP in passive mode, FTP worked on all tested operating systems ๐
The network traceroute doesn't work in inbound or outbound directions because there is no continuity of the IPv4 network, as it is interrupted by an IPv6-only network. The tool is not capable of detecting the hosts in this IPv6-only network, and because of that the traceroute doesn't succeed ๐
The testing was run with version 1.1 of the MAP-T software developed by CERNET. In this version, the MAP-T CPE uses a NAT44, so it is not possible to receive incoming connections, even on the ports assigned to the host by the address plus port division. Because of that, it is not possible to configure a server on the host. We provided this feedback to the CERNET team, and they developed a new version of the software (2.2c) that is capable of receiving incoming connections on specific ports in each CPE ๐ซถ๐
6. Future Testing Considerations ๐ฎ
okay bestie, the to-do list for next time is long and I'm obsessed ๐ญโจ Future tests should consider testing Mapping of Address and Port with Encapsulation (MAP-E) [RFC7597] too, since it's currently supported in the new version of CERNET's MAP software ๐. Other operating systems (Mac OS, Android, IOS, etc.) could get tested, plus devices (mobile phones, tablets, video games, etc.) and programs (mail and instant messaging clients and servers) ๐ . Another thing to check is the port sharing ratio, and whether it affects performance and functionalities ๐ฆ. The results from MAP Interoperability Testing Results [MAP-TESTING] are also relevant for future tests ๐ธ. And impact on other protocols, like DNS and DNSSEC, could also be verified ๐ง. No cap, it's a full plate.
7. Security Considerations ๐
There are no new security considerations pertaining to this document. โจ Iykyk, this one's clean ๐ซถ.

A.10. Torrent Clients ๐ง
Torrent clients, we're going through a few of them, so let's gooo ๐
A.10.1. Vuze ๐ฆ
Vuze is the first one on the list and it's a whole mixed bag, ngl ๐ญ Here's the table:
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Test Item |Torrent client |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Sub-Item |Vuze |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Test OS |Linux, Windows 7, Windows XP |

+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Test |Check whether the Vuze BitTorrent client can connect |
|Objective |to a tracker, identify peers, and make a direct |
| |connection to them behind the double translation of |
| |MAP-T. |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Test |1. Download and install the Vuze client. |
|Procedure |2. Load a torrent file with many seeds and start the |
| | download. |
| |3. Wait and check whether the client connects to a |
| | tracker, identifies at least one peer, and the |
| | download starts. |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Expected |Vuze client can connect to trackers, identify |
|Result |peers and start downloads. |
| | |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Actual Result|Partially Passed |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Remarks |As it is not possible to receive incoming |
| |connections, the software is not capable of |
| |performing the seeding of downloaded files. |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
So the vibe is: it can find the tracker and peers and start downloading ๐ฅ, but it's partially passed because it can't receive incoming connections, which means it can't do seeding ๐ฅฒ Not the full slay yet.
A.10.2. uTorrent ๐
uTorrent is next, and it's giving the same story as Vuze, bestie ๐

|Expected |uTorrent clients can connect to trackers, identify |
|Result |peers, and start downloads. |
| | |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Actual Result|Partially Passed |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Remarks |As it is not possible to receive incoming |
| |connections, the software is not capable of |
| |performing the seeding of downloaded files. |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
Same deal: tracker โ , peers โ , downloads โ , but seeding โ because no incoming connections ๐
A.10.3. Ktorrent ๐
Last one in this group is Ktorrent, and this one is Linux only ๐ง
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Test Item |Torrent client |

+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Remarks |As it is not possible to receive incoming |
| |connections, the software is not capable of |
| |performing the seeding of downloaded files. |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
Ktorrent gets the same "partially passed" result as the other two, bestie ๐
A.10.4. Note about BitTorrent Seeders ๐ธ
Okay, this note is the real tea โ BitTorrent runs on distributed queues, and every seeder owns the queues for the files it has ๐ง The seeder tells the tracker it has the file, the tracker tells the clients about that seeder, and then the clients message the seeder to try to download. Now here's the problem: with no incoming connection, BitTorrent just fails on MAP-T ๐ญ
It's even worse than that, because the machine can be a possible seeder and still not upload the file. Without uploading, it's treated as a leech and gets penalized with slower future download speeds ๐ That's the same issue you'd see on an IPv4 network without port forwarding ๐ซ
If you want the details on how shared IPv4 addresses affect torrent, check out "Behavior of BitTorrent service in PCP-enabled networks with Address Sharing" [PCP-BITTORRENT] ๐ฆ

| Objective | machine, via ssh, behind the double translation of |
| MAP-T. |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
| Test | 1. Install openssh-client (Linux) or putty (Windows) |
|---|---|
| Procedure | on a host inside MAP-T network. |
| 2. Attempt a connection to the host from a machine | |
| outside the MAP-T network. | |

| possible to list, send, and receive files. Using | |
| passive mode on Windows 7 and XP didn't solve the | |
| problem with list or sending and receiving files. | |
| It looks like passive mode is not correctly | |
| implemented. Active mode doesn't work on networks | |
| with NAT, so it is acceptable that active mode | |
| doesn't work with MAP-T either. |

| |2. Open a terminal on the MAP-T client and execute |
| | a traceroute to a known host outside the MAP-T |
| | network (www.google.com, for instance). |
| |3. Check whether the route is traced until the known |
| | host and the list of intermediary routers is |
| | complete. |
| |4. Open a terminal on a host outside the MAP-T |
| | network and execute a traceroute to the MAP-T |
| | client. |
| |5. Check whether the route is traced until the MAP-T |
| | client and the list of intermediary routers is |
| | complete. |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Expected |The traceroute tool can map the complete route of a |
|Result |packet to and from the MAP-T client. |
| | |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Actual Result|Failed |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
|Remarks |After the first v4/v6 translation, the routers are |
| |not mapped by the traceroute. |
+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
the tea โ traceroute failed bestie ๐ญ once the packet gets its first v4/v6 translation, the routers after that point just don't show up in the map
A.14.3. tracert ๐ฐ๏ธ
and the Windows version, tracert ๐ชโจ same goal, different tool name, same heartbreak ๐

|Test |Check whether the tracert tool can identify each |
|Objective |router in the path of a packet sent to a host |
| |outside the MAP-T network. |

same story, different OS ๐ฅฒ Failed, and the routers past the first v4/v6 translation are missing from the map again
